@TeamYouTube your automated system is at it again, incorrectly striking videos that DO NOT violate community guidelines, denying appeals. This is a review/tutorial & does not try to sell nicotine products. There are no links or websites. Please get a real person to have a look.

It's a problem that most of the people in the AI industry believe that their goal is to make humanity useless, not to give humanity better tools.
Most people I know in AI think the median person is screwed, and they have no idea what to do about it. I spent the last 3 months talking to dozens of researchers, economists, and policy experts about AI's impact on work; including reps from every frontier lab and several Congressional offices. Unfortunately, I was not reassured. The AI industry is raising the alarm, but can't change course. These companies' core business model relies on the disruption they are warning about: their faith in full automation only makes them go faster. Policymakers are waking up, but still paralyzed by data and debates. Econ wonks disagree on plenty, but even the limited scenario looks like a "painful transition" that will disempower millions of workers. But an "underclass" is not inevitable, but rather a societal choice — and one we can and should stop. Instead of waiting for impact, we should start planning now to support workers through AI disruption. Whether policymakers can assuage concerns about economic security may determine if we get to reap AI's gains at all. New from me for @NYTOpinion. I put a ton into researching what I think may be the biggest topic of the year, so hope you read it (gift link here!) nytimes.com/2026/04/30/opini…

I stand by this statement. Mariners need a new manager.
Only the Seattle Mariners would covet a mediocre player known for choking in big moments and give them the Manager job. Mariners weren’t good because of him, it was in spite of him. Dan Wilson shouldn’t have a job next year.

Wait til these whiners experience having teenagers
Sooner or later, everyone has to decide whether to give up lazy weekends, disposable income, and overall peace of mind to have a baby instead. For many of those on the fence, one anxiety looms large: What if I make the wrong choice? Parent regret is more common than you might think — the r/regretfulparents sub-Reddit alone gets around 70,000 weekly visitors who anonymously commiserate — though stigma makes it hard to admit in real life. Writer Bindu Bansinath speaks with three moms of young children about why they wish they could go back to their old lives: nymag.visitlink.me/Sv0c_9

Not at all downplaying how hard having young kids is, especially for moms. Just saying, the teen years have been next level stress for my wife and I. We both look back at our kids early years very fondly lol.

So many foreign accounts meddling in this Minneapolis situation and saying complete falsehoods. You can tell cause they don’t know shit about the 2A, firearms, or what they look like in the hand. X is a dumpster fire by design in order to keep facts from being clear.

Agree 100% that @TeamYouTube should promptly reinstate the @GrimmGreen channel, which is an indispensable educational outlet for hundreds of thousands of followers who NEED this invaluable information. It is truly a public health service. Please do not kill free speech of this nature.
I hope @TeamYouTube reconsiders the closure of the @GrimmGreen channel. This is a globally significant centre of expertise and insight for people who want to reduce risks from smoking. Harm reduction is an effective strategy in many areas of public health, including tobacco.

Hey @TeamYouTube please have a real human review this case... This is so unfair!!! Guys I don't usually ask for RTs, but please RT this if you can!!!
After 16 years, my @YouTube channel (GrimmGreen) was terminated today with no real explanation. I’ve built my content around harm reduction, helping adult smokers quit, and advocating for science-based policies. This feels like a huge mistake. If you believe in THR, free speech, and the mission we’ve been on, please help me get YouTube’s attention. @TeamYouTube I’m asking for a real human to review my case. I’ve never promoted anything illegal. I’ve never targeted youth. I’ve worked tirelessly to be a responsible voice in the vaping and harm reduction space. But like many creators in this space, it seems I’ve been swept up in an overly aggressive moderation wave.

I think @TeamYouTube needs to be transparent about this. They give vague reasons that keep creators guessing and will strip away 16 years of work instead of having a rep clearly explain what needs to be changed to be compliant.

The idea that a King brings peace, stability, and safety just isn’t really historically accurate. With a King you now have a single point of failure. Even with the good ones, all hell breaks loose when they die and the power vacuum creates civil war and massive unrest.
That’s it. I want a King.
